Book excerpt: Excerpt from Monthly Cyclopedia and Medical Bulletin, 1912, Vol. 5 Professor of Surgery in Temple University; Surgeon to the Samaritan Hospital, philadelphia, pa. For certain operations and for certain patients anesthesia by inhalation is undesirable. For operations in the vicinity of the upper respiratory passages, and in certain operations in which the patient is placed in the prone position, anesthesia by inhalation may be either inconvenient or it may interfere with the work of the operator. Again, for certain patients it is desirable to produce unconsciousness without the patient's, knowledge that is being induced, while diseases of the respiratory. System frequently contraindicate irritating inhalations. For these and, perhaps, other reasons, a number of attempts have been made to produce general anesthesia in other-ways than by inhalation. A year had not elapsed after Morton's 'famous demonstration of ether anesthesia before Pirogoff had produced. Anesthesia by the introduction of ether vapor into the rectum. Rectal anesthesia, although revived from time to time, has never become popular, since it is difficult to manage, irritating to the intestinal mucous membrane, and tends to produce undesirable distention of the bowel, and at times even death through the rupture of a previously unrecognized intes tinal ulcer.
